    Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for storing and retrieving data from distributed vaults are provided. In some embodiments, a method for storing and retrieving data from distributed vaults is provided, the method comprising: generating, by a first user device, a plurality of pieces of a data item, wherein a count N of the plurality of pieces equals a count of vault devices in a group of vault devices, wherein the data item can be reconstructed from a subset of the plurality of pieces, and wherein the data item corresponds to a key to access secure content; for each piece of the data item, transmitting the piece of the data item to a unique vault device; requesting, by a second user device, the subset of the plurality of pieces; generating the data item using the subset of the plurality of pieces; and using the data item to access the secure content.
